Silicon Graphics high-tech technology for looking inside a mummy

Ever since I was a kid I was interested in mummies and the history of Egypt. My interest started during a history course where we saw pictures of king Tut and Nefertiti (don't really know how to spell it). I always wanted to know how the inside of a mummy's coffin looked like. Now at SGI they looked into a coffin of a young mummy child. It's really impressive what they can do nowadays with technology.
